“Sure you will!” Muck interjected, sidling away from Malarkey, who had slugged him in the arm for abandoning him with their former captain. “You’ve got us looking out for you. So if you land over there and can’t find the good Doc here, then just look for one of us.”
“Yeah,” Penkala interjected. “Muck will be the one with the big mouth, and Don over here will be your fellow red-head in combat.”
“Gee, thanks,” Sam replied, feeling her spirits lighten despite her tone. Maybe they weren’t all that bad she’d have to learn to start trusting them soon enough anyway. She was going to be spending the next however many weeks or months with their group, after all. She glanced at Malarkey, a faint smile on her face. “Well, if anything, I assume I can count on a fellow Irishman to help me out?”
“Us crazy fools gotta stick together,” Don fired back, his own smile teasing.
“Saints preserve us, she’s actually gettin’ along with people!” Muck crowed, and Sam elbowed him as hard as she could in the gut (which was his reserve chute) with a growl.
“Don’t tempt fate, nurse.”
“Sir, yes sir.”

I love adventurous tales like that. That uplifting feeling that comes from seeing unknown lands and the knowledge that you came across—nothing can replace it! It opens a path from which self-confidence, experience, and important friendships—from the sharing of life or death situations—are born! But hearing it just isn’t the same. I want to create my own magnificent story!
A great adventure! +Imp. Documents+ +Menagerie+ +Wishlist+ +Journal+
